How should tonsillitis be treated when children feel uncomfortable?

Patient's question:

Boy, 11 years old, in primary school. At first, he said that even drinking water with his throat felt painful. He noticed that swallowing seemed a bit difficult, and he also had a slight fever and no energy. Please ask: How should children with tonsillitis be treated for discomfort?

Doctor's answer:

When treating such diseases, children can be given some symptomatic antibiotic medications. If the child's condition is severe, local treatments such as tonsillar crypt irrigation and tonsillar medication injections can also be used. If the sore throat is particularly severe, appropriate pain relievers can be given. Children with fever symptoms can take fever-reducing medications. If the condition is severe, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, bring their children to the hospital for early diagnosis and treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
